I noticed that Nuremberg Toy Fair starts this week, so keep an eye open for news, however last week was supposed to be the London fair and i must admit i have not noticed any mention or discussion over the model forums on the subject.

Has anybody seen anything, did it happen, if so any model news for 2010 ?

Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Anyone know if the Revell B-17G is a new kit and which Gladiator will be in the box (Matchbox?).

Yes and most likely.

Oddly enough on that list the new Revell.de stuff is listed as Neuheit, new stuff from everybody else is Neue Form.
Must be a German thing.  ;D

Ya know I was worried we wouldn't have YET ANOTHER 1/700 scale Bismark and Tirpitz.  Thankfully, Revell has me covered.   :rolleyes:

Eh, who am I kidding, all of my plastic money is going to Cyber-Hobby and Pit-Road this year.  :D

I know what you mean.  ;D - Daring, LCS, Virginia, Long Beach plus the JMSDF Hyuga  oh my wallets going to hurt with that lot.

I'm not much of a ship builder but I'm seriously tempted by the Independence and Hyuga.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The Roden 1/48 AU-23 Peacemaker is a different one.  Looks like the Eduard L-39 will be re-released, hope I can get one before it dissappears again!  Platz's Global Hawk has been mentioned beofre, but it's a welcome one although I expect it'll be pricey.  I've been waiting for a Matchbox Fury or two, I'll bag some when Revell re-release it.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

The AU-23 should be here in a few days according this Mossie. http://www.armorama.co.uk/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=6205

Perhaps N1854, the first production Fulmar I which was retained by Fairey and later modified to Mk. II standard?
Post-war N1854 received the civil registration G-AIBE and was used by Fairey as a two-passenger communication aircraft.
N1854 is the aircraft in the FAA Museum at Yeovilton.
